Chemodivergent hydrogenolysis of eucalyptus biomass leading to 4-propanol- or 4-propyl-substituted phenols, together with a well-preserved carbohydrate component, was achieved by using Ni@ZIF-8 catalyst.

In a preceding study, the molecular hydrophobicity (RM0) was determined experimentally from reverse-phase thin-layer chromatography data for several substituted phenols and 2-(aryloxy-a-acetyl)-phenoxathiin derivatives, obtained from the corresponding phenoxides and 2-(a-bromoacetyl)-phenoxathiin. QSPR correlations for RM0 were explored using four calculated molecular descriptors: the water solubility parameter (log Sw), log P, the Gibbs energy of formation (DGf), and the aromaticity index (HOMA). Triparametric correlations do not improve substantially the biparametric correlation of RM0 in terms of log Sw and HOMA.

Decomposition of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate (2,4-D) by a soil arthrobacter was studied using the technique of sequential induction. Compounds oxidized rapidly and without a lag by 2,4-D-grown cells, but slowly or not at all by citrate-grown cells, included 2,4-D, 2- and 4-chlorophenoxyacetate, 3,5-dichloro- and 4-chloro-catechol, catechol, 2,4-dichlorophenol, and 2- and 4-chlorophenol. The manometric data suggested that phenols and catechols were intermediates in the degradation of phenoxyacetates. Resting cells failed to accumulate chlorine-substituted phenols during the metabolism of halogenated phenoxyacetates, apparently because the phenols were oxidized as readily as they were formed. However, 2,4-D-induced cells contained enzymes which acted upon phenoxyacetate and 4-hydroxyphenoxyacetate, but these cells did not metabolize phenol and hydroquinone. Suspensions of such bacteria, but not citrate-grown cells, converted phenoxyacetate and 4-hydroxyphenoxyacetate almost completely to phenol and hydroquinone, respectively. The results indicate that the Arthrobacter sp. degrades 2,4-D via 2,4-dichlorophenol, and 2- and 4-chlorophenoxyacetate via 2- and 4-chlorophenol, respectively. The results also demonstrate a new technique for obtaining high yields of an intermediate in a metabolic sequence.

Cell wall preparations of uniform chemical constitution have been obtained from several strains of group A streptococci. The isolated cell walls are dissolved by the same fractions of the Streptomyces albus enzymes that are effective in the lysis of intact cells, and it is likely that enzymatic lysis of group A streptococci is effected by an attack on the cell wall. The streptococcal cell wall, as prepared in this study, consists of approximately two-thirds carbohydrate and one-third protein. Small amounts of other components may be present. The carbohydrate component, which is composed primarily of N-acetyl-glucosamine and rhamnose, is the group-specific C carbohydrate. The evidence indicates that one of the streptomyces enzymes is directed toward the carbohydrate component of the cell wall.
